Pass it on

It’s been a busy day and a lot of amazing things are happening for the Fag Bug project in Las Vegas and with other cool local events: Las Vegas Fag Bug events finalized! We’re having a press conference for Erin and the Fag Bug at the Gay and Lesbian Community Center of Southern Nevada at…

Fag Bug news

Good news everyone! Things are really rolling along to get the Fag Bug event off the ground next month. She’ll be here July 26 and 27 so it’s less than 30 days away!  I had an incredibly productive meeting last night with members of the local HRC (Human Rights Campaign), which is starting a new…

Help out your LGBT family

Just got word about the Nevada Public Benefit Board hearing tomorrow (Wed.) about domestic partner benefits. A member of the local HRC told me that as of earlier today, the e-mail traffic to the board was 100% against voting to approve domestic partner benefits. While we may have a nasty law in this state that…

Notes from a feminist father

Yesterday was Father’s Day and I am proud to offer this piece written by my best friend Joshua Todd. He’s not only a brilliant social worker devoting his professional time in Portland, Ore. to the first Youth Bill of Rights in the nation, he is also an organizer for Daddies & Pappas, which held its…

Another Fag Bug update

Just got off the phone with Erin Davies — such a cool, amazing person! I’m even more excited to bring her Fag Bug message to Las Vegas now!  It was inspiring to hear from her how this whole thing has changed her life and that it isn’t as easy as it looks. “I have to…

Love and marriage: I do

While I’m a huge fan of Feministing, I’m a little upset with them right now. They’ve had a series of posts lately about how marriage is bad, mm-kay. (Sorry but I can’t figure out how to trackback to their site.) I’m not going to say that marriage is perfect, for everyone or even available to…

Admit it, you want another Fag Bug update

Good news kids! Things are rolling along pretty well with the Fag Bug tour project. I’ve gotten in touch with a major LGBTQ organization and I think with their resources, volunteers and enthusiasm, we may just get a visit from the Fag Bug in July! The member I spoke with said they are looking for…

True Colors Tour

A group of us went to the True Colors concert on Friday and it was really fun. I wasn’t going to miss it because I love Cyndi Lauper and it was finally a chance to see her without being billed with some band/performer I don’t like. Plus, Margaret Cho performed throughout the concert (there were…

Cho world order

I’m totally bragging here but I wanted to share that I interviewed Margaret Cho for the latest CityLife. I’m a fan and she’s certainly the biggest name celebrity I’ve interviewed. (And I get to see her tonight, along with Cyndi Lauper, at the True Colors concert benefiting the HRC!) Sweet!

Fag bug!

Just a quick update on the “fag bug” project. I’ve been e-mailing Erin and she is excited to come to Las Vegas next month. Still need to set up an event and think about pre- or day-of fundraising options. Also, does anyone have connections to LGBT groups in the high schools or at local colleges?…
